Come Flooding Back:

As dawn appears in golden rays, A hint of jasmine fills the air, This night has passed so achingly, Though my heart is still filled with care. I think back to all those moments, In time, the distant memories, Come flooding back in elegance, Like a warm breeze across the seas. These moments so rare and precious, Those memories you gave to me, More moving than the burning sun, So why can't I just let them be? (Eight syllables per line)

love the scene you put me in to see and smell. Oh, those memories that are meant to stay and linger in our hearts are meant to fill us with love and hope... In an in and out relationship we have to let go because if we don't the bad will destroy us.. even though some were good.. Good write, Rick. Hugs Eve

Good question at the end my friend and one I know I can't answer, because it is one I often ask myself. Your poem is beautiful throughout, the scene you create is soothing and really touches me this morning. If you ever o find the answer to that question, let me know...will'ya?
